but other than that , this year has been great . Like you said , the last few years , 2019 I started with a surgery in the beginning of the year and missed the first round . 2018 , I had the surgery soon enough to where I raced the first round . I ’ m mixing the two up . One of the years I missed the first round , and the other year I made it in just in time and was able to squeak off an eighth place overall or something . The year before that , I was having the original injury that started it all which was my shoulder was popping out . That was what I ended up having to go into surgery for , was dislocating my shoulder . So there was just three or four years there where I felt like it should have been my championship to win , but like you said , it just didn ’ t work out with injuries or just stuff came up . But this year we put it all together . Me and the Sherco guys here , we put a whole season together and only one little issue there in the middle of the season , and still finished tenth overall at that race , so all in all I can ’ t complain . It was a pretty great year .
